Great item

This product is used by me daily. When I get up in the morning before I take my walk, I look at the temperature outside my house (not something on the weather channel) to determine how I will dress that day. Excellent gift for anyone.

Pros: Easy to Install, Functionality, Good Shape

Indoor /Outdoor Temp & Weather Station

The indoor/outdoor temp/humidity indicator is very good and easy to use - it's the 2nd one that I bought so that I can have them in two locations in the house. This item also gives a graphical indication of what the weather is or will be soon.

Pros: Durable, Easy to Clean, Easy to Install, Functionality

Weather Station Forcaster

We find this weather very accurate. We have placed about 7 feet off the ground facing east on the SE side of our shed in the back yard. It does not have direct sun on it. So far we notice that it weather follows the forecast very well.

GREAT once its done "learning"

I bought this weather station and thought the packaging was very detailed. Very Easy set up. I love how it has a signal indicator for the outdoor sensor and time so i know that its talking to the main unit correctly and the range is good. Once you first use it it comes with a 14 day learning period it measures how high the sensor is and configs it to the most detailed forecast. I was never caught of guard with the forecast icon for rain yet! Whenever the forecast called for rain approaching the forecast icon would change. The forecast icon changes alot. even after the rain storm it will change icons fast when we had a nice day after the storms. I also LOVE the records shows you the high and low temp for the day. Humidity is very accurite ill do a fast example: nws saids the current Humidity: is 50 %my weather station saids 49% I dont have any real dislikes about it. it shows indoor temp/indoor humidty. i love the cool backlight which stays on for about 6 secs. the best thing this senor outside is water resistant. BUY IT YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED

Good features for the price

I like that it has Temperature and Humidity for both inside and outside. It also retains the high and low temperature for the current day. The forecast is about as good as online forecasts are. I use it every day.

AcuRite Digital Weather Station

This was a replacement for another brand that quit working after only a year or so. The AcuRite was much easier to set up and use plus, the display is easier to read, even though it's a little smaller. I am going to buy another for upstairs and highly recommend this product.

Everything works!

The AcuRite digital weather station works exactly as advertised. The temperature readings, indoor and outside, both correlate with my other thermometers. Signal strength between the outside and inside units is always strong.

The signal strength to the atomic clock site is always minimal, but the unit has never varied even one minute when checked against my cell phone's time. So I do not care about synchronizing with an atomic clock. I have used the unit for about 3 months now and it even predicts the weather fairly accurately. If you care about the weather, this is the unit to get.

Pros: Easy to Use, Looks Great, Lots of Features, Looks High End, it works 24/7

A bad mistake!!!!

The unit needs to be re-set every 3 - 4 days. I tried all three frequencies and it was the same.I replied to Acurite customer satisfaction survey but they never responded.DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!!

Pros: Easy to Install

Cons: needs constant resets

No, I do not recommend this product.

Dark screen & small number size makes the startion read outs hard to see from across an average room.

Atomic Clock signal weak in this area & so this function does not work.

All other features do work & seem accurate.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I have bought several weather stations put out by Acu-Rite and they all fail within a short amount of time. The package directions on the last one said to keep it away from other electronic devices, so I have been careful to do that, and I used brand new lithium batteries. However, within about 30 days, the sensor for the outside gets stuck and stays where it is. Reset does not work. I have to stick the indoor unit outside for an hour to get it to reset. I will not buy another Acu-Rite.

This product not only looks good it works!

I've had several of this type weather station but this is the only one that is wright on with the weather channel. It looks great and I love the night light.

Thermometer not accurate

No, I do not recommend this product.

All features worked properly with the exception of the indoor temperature measurement. Really? It's an indoor/outdoor thermometer, so at least that part should be accurate. The indoor temperature was not only inacurate, it was inconsistent. It varied between two and four degrees on the high side. If the correct temperature was 72, it would display anything between 74 and 76.

I replaced the unit with the Acurite model 02005, which works properly, although it does not have the backlight.
